For agroindustry, crop diseases constitute one of the most common problems that generate great economic losses and low production quality. On the other hand, from the field of computer science, several tools have emerged that may improve the prevention and treatment of these diseases. In this sense, recent research proposes the development of expert systems to solve this problem, making use of data mining and artificial intelligence techniques like rule-based inference, decision trees, Bayesian network, among others. Furthermore, graphs can be used to store different types of variables present in a crop environment, allowing the application of graph data mining techniques like graph pattern matching. In this paper, we present an overview of the above issues and the proposal of an expert system for crop disease based on graph pattern matching.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
